My Adventurous Man!



A couple weekends ago Chad and 4 of his friends went on a 3-day Hike! Crazy, if you ask me, but they had a great time.
The hiked from Castle Rock in Saratoga all the way to Santa Cruz - that is like 35 miles!
This was Chad's 2nd time doing this hike - he hoped it would have been a bit easier the 2nd time - but turned out it was just as tiring.
It was so fun to see Chad get so excited about this hike.
For like a month before he would search the internet all the time for info on the "Skyline to the Sea" hike.
He was fully packed and ready to go at least 24 hours before they even left - and if you know my husband, that is insane!
Anytime we leave to go anywhere and packing is involved, he does not even start packing until like 30 minutes before it's time to leave.
He obviously was extra excited to hike for 35 miles! Is that even normal?

Here they are - Neal, Chad, Ryan, Richard and Steve - with all their gear ready to begin this "strenuous hike"



My little outdoorsman!


The beautiful view as they were reaching their final destination.



If I can ever get Chad to jump into the world of blogging maybe he can write a little bit more information about what they did each day and how hard it really was...until then, I thought I'd give you a little update on Chad's exciting 3 days! It is a pretty big accomplishment.
